The Last Thing To Go
written by Kris Kristofferson
3/7/06
SPOKEN: Okay, the great featherweight Willie Peps once said, talkin' of fighters'
lifetimes, said the first thing to go is your legs, then it's your reflexes,
and then it's your friends. This one's called "The Last Thing to Go."
INTRO: A
A D A
The angels were singin' a sad country song
E
It sounded like somethin' of yours
A D A
With a concience as clear as the tear in your eye
E A
And a heart beatin' golden and pure
A D A
And I felt all the feelin's we set down in song
E
Torn from the body and soul
A D A
And the fortunes that faded like stars into daylight
E A
And teardrops we turned into gold
CHORUS:
D A
Every hard rockin' wreck on the highway
E
Every heart broken rule of the road
A D A
Every true thing we wrote on the wind is still singin'
E A
Love is the last thing to go
(KEY CHANGE TO D)
D G D
Love is the reason we happened at all
A
And it paid for the damage we done
D G D
And it bought us the freedom to fall into grace
A D
On our way to our place in the sun
CHORUS:
G D
Every hard rockin' wreck on the highway
A
Every heart broken rule of the road
D G D
Every true thing we wrote on the wind is still singin'
A D
Love is the last thing to go
OUTRO: A D
